Our Colts All Over Holy Cross 43-6 in their Regular Season Finale at the MAC & Go Undefeated at 8-0
*The actual score was 43-6. Unless the rule has changed, the final running PAT should have scored 1 point. Only kicking PATs count for 2 in Middle School Football.
Mustangs Sputter Early, Finish Strong Late, Defeat District Opponent Holy Cross 35-0 At TMU & Go 1-0 In District Play, Improve to 6-1 Overall
Holy Cross came to within a half yard of going ahead 6-0 early in the second quarter. However football fields are 100 yards and not 99 1/2 yards, leaving the Indians a foot and a half short, turning the ball over to the Mustang offense who marched the ball the requisite 99 1/2 yards in the other direction to take a lead that we wouldn’t relinquish.
The sneaky good @brossart_fball team is 6-1 after a shutout win against Holy Cross.#FOX19FinalQuarter pic.twitter.com/Huwtz8X4QQ

The Holy Cross Indians, fresh off of a 38-0 win over Morgan County on the road, came to play Friday night, causing the Mustang defense problems stopping the sizable Junior back, Trevin Figgs, who plowed through our line for several early game gainers. Neither team was able to sustain a first quarter drive, but the Indians set themselves up to score in the waning moments of the period, going 1st and Goal from the 7 yard line at the onset of the 2nd stanza.
With the bullet dodged, Tyler Holtz and company found themselves with 99 1/2 yards of real estate in front of them. Cam Mandel gave his team some breathing room, carrying the piggy 30 yards while picking up a first down. On the ensuing play Keegan Gulley took us to mid-field and another first down. Three first downs later Tyler found Keegan Gulley from 3 yards out and the Mustangs were on the board with a 7-0 lead when Max Runge hit his first of five extra points on the night. Two minutes later Holtz went to the air once again, connecting on an 18 yard aerial to Isaac Amin, who made a tough catch for our second score of the period. Following the Runge PAT, we led 14-0 at halftime.
The Mustangs , who had won the toss and deferred to the second half, put together an 82 yard drive that culminated five minutes later with Cam Mandel scoring on an 18 yard trophy run, giving his team a 21-0 lead, enroute to the 35-0 victory. Holy Cross never threatened in the second half. In that final period Holtz hit Quinten Tischner in a play incorporating a bit of Mustang chicanery, followed by a late-game 1 Yard plunge by Landon Geyer, who had set up that touchdown and had a big night on offense.
For their efforts Geyer was named the Offensive Player of the Game, and Anthony Schuck who was key defensively all night long, was tabbed the Defensive Player of the Game.
This win over district opponent, Holy Cross, sets up a district clash with the Defending Champion Ludlow Panthers, next Friday night at the MAC. Ludlow is 1-0 in district play, having defeated Trimble County 54-0 Thursday night.

Lady 'Stangs Secure District Number Two Seed with Three Set Domination over Calvary Christian
The defense all night led by Sophomore Josie Reckner, Freshman Libero Grace Frommeyer, Seniors, Abby Shelton and Gia Infante kept the floor defense in position as Calvary had very few kills on the night and looked frustrated by the girls digs. Aubrey Rebholz had an unofficial 34 assists on the night as she was providing great sets for the team to pound.
The L’Stangs dominated game two, jumping to a 5-1 lead off a kills by Killer Kate Neltner, a block by Ritter and an Service line ace from Hershey. Another block by Ritter and then back to back service aces by Ritter and the Lady Stangs were up 9-2. Two kills by Sophomore, Leah Robinson, and a kill by Rebholz and the score was 13-4. The Lady Stangs would continue their offensive authority by getting a block by Ritter then two Hershey kiss, then 4 straight kills by Ritter and the score was 21-5. Killer Kate Neltner would end the game as she got three kills in a row to get the game to 25-7.
Game three the Lady Mustangs again poured it on as they jumped to a 5-3 lead of kills by Junior, Madison Dozier, two kills by Killer Kate Neltner, and a Hershey Kiss. Frommeyer would get two service line aces in a row to stretch the lead to 10-6. The lead would only grow from there as Killer Kate, Ritter, getting two kills and another Hershey kiss and the score was 17-7. Dozier made a fantastic block followed by two Killer Kate kills and the score was 21-10. Robinson would put the icing on the cake as she secured two more kills and then two unforced errors by Calvary and the 21st win was in the books for the Lady Stangs.
